Marinas in Spain

The coast of Andalucia has always been home to sea ports and important trade routes were once established here from Europe to the rest of the world. Today, the marinas berth pleasure crafts and provide entertainment for visitors who enjoy a stroll among the boats.

The fair weather, in which the Costa del Sol bathes, permits sailing in any season and with their top quality, modern facilities many owners of sea faring crafts choose one of the many marinas on the coast to provide a permanent berth for their vessels.

The yacht harbour at Sotogrande offers a magnificent range of installations and is considered to be one of the best in the Mediterranean. Its high quality is reflected in the residential development in which it sits.

Cabopino

Cabopino Port lies next to the expansive Cabopino beach. It is a popular choice for eating and drinking and a slow, after dinner meander amongst the boats.

With its charming Arabian architecture, Benalmadena Marina is an atmospheric place to enjoy an outdoor concert in the summer or to sample the catch of the day in any number of fish restaurants.
